We sent forms back on 14th December and we've not heard anything.With the amount of claims we're just waiting for a brown envelope to land on the mat saying yay or nay which we think will be nay,2 friends who sent the forms back in November haven't heard anything either.It's just a waiting game

Do keep us updated Barbie, 13 weeks today for me. I wish they wouldn't say within 12 weeks. They should say around the 12 week mark :/.

UPDATE, Got a call from them just now! 14 weeks ago we did it over the phone but the form didn't have my signature, he must of forgot it and the lady said i will hear something within two days. Hope all is going well with you barbie

I'm not sure why they say they are paying you 3 weeks ESA in advance, are you sure that you heard that right?

It's probably something to do with the benefit rates changing on 8th April.

He may have said your next 3 payments will be £127.15 and then go up to £128.45 after 8th April?

The backpay can go in at any time, so keep checking your bank balance daily.

As soon as he mentioned the backpay amount my mind went completely blank and i think you will be correct on that! i will let you know next week, it does sound right doesn't it. Oh! i will get a letter tomorrow i think so that will say everything, forgot about that not received it yet.,
